The catchy, playful series theme song is performed by Grammy-, Juno-, and Polaris Prize-nominated singer/songwriter (and Hello Kitty superfan) Carly Rae Jepsen. The song and lyrics were written by Jared Faber, who created music for Teen Titans Go! and The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants. The series begins with six new episodes, with the remainder of the 52-episode series arriving throughout 2023.

Hello Kitty: Super Style! is a show about how anyone can be a great friend by being courageously kind. With the power of her magical bow, Hello Kitty activates an amazing transformation to become a brave explorer, high-jumping athlete, sensational pop star, and more to help her friends and save the day. When Hello Kitty's friend Zonty is afraid to roller skate, she transforms into Athlete Kitty to help him find the confidence he needs to take a spin on his own! And when Frido forgets a gift for her buddy on Friendship Day, Artist Kitty is ready to help her express herself to show she cares. Hello Kitty: Super Style! is an action-packed series full of heart and humor, with new original music and adorable and diverse characters, who help deliver social-emotional life lessons about confidence and compassion in every episode.

"This series has lots of fun playing up Hello Kitty's super style, but at the end of the day, it's really about her being a super friend. The world needs more kindness right now, and Hello Kitty is a compassionate hero who doesn't judge others. She makes a point of embracing everyone's point of view," said Veronica Pickett, head of original series, Amazon Kids+.

For more than 60 years, Sanrio has engaged consumers through a wide variety of offerings that foster emotional bonds. From sweet treats to apparel and home goods, the brand has cemented its core values, which foster expressing heartfelt feelings for others, making any moment with Hello Kitty and friends a memorable one. Today, Sanrio is expanding and evolving its connections with fans through captivating content across multiplatform channels by licensing its best-known pop icon, Hello Kitty. Together, the brand's legacy and enhanced approach toward more digital offerings further cultivate the needs of new generations.

"Hello Kitty: Super Style! is a great example of how Sanrio's longstanding commitment to friendship and kindness remains eternally relevant for so many audiences," says Craig Takiguchi, chief operating officer and head of business development at Sanrio, Inc. "Thanks to this collaboration with Amazon Kids+, we're excited to see these values reflected online and IRL, and look forward to continuing our evolution in the digital space to engage with fans of all ages in meaningful ways."

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
